About Me


I am an independent woman who is self sufficient and very proud of that fact! I love to laugh and try to enjoy life to the fullest! I don't require material possessions or lavish gifts, just the simple things in life make me happy! I am very big on morals and values and always remember that my actions not only affect me, they affect others as well, especially the people I care about! I always try to do the right thing, even though that can be very difficult, and be the best person I can be ~ friend, daughter, sister, aunt, employee and whatever other role I may have in life! I am blessed with a wonderful family and wonderful friends who I adore. I love spending time with them all and I also enjoy watching TV, movies, reading, bowling, working out at the gym, playing board games, cards and watching sports (especially WVU). I also enjoy the outdoors and love to fish when I get the opportunity. I admire people who are upfront and honest with me and I am the same. I can't stand people who try to be something other than what they truly are and am a firm believer in say what you mean and mean what you say. It may sting a bit but honesty always works out best in the end. If you want to know anything more about me ~ feel free to ask! This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!

My Interests

My interests include reading, watching TV/movies/sports, bowling, playing board games, enjoying the outdoors, visiting or talking to friends and working out. I love to eat but am not the best cook. I love true crime stories and am always looking for a good true crime book or show to captivate me. Friendship is also very important and my beautiful nephew Xander Ray!

I'd like to meet:

I am always looking to meet interesting people I can hold a conversation with. I love to talk and debate and I am hoping this site will provide an avenue for me to meet people I would otherwise not have the opportunity to meet. I am hoping to connect with new people and reconnect with people from the past.

Music:

I can listen to any type of music but I would have to say that my favorite is classic rock. I don't listen to music much unless I am driving. I try to get out and take in a good local band from time to time. I also love to sing & dance with my gorgeous Goddaughter Reilly Elisabeth!

Movies:

My favorite movies are dramas, although I do have a soft spot for Freddy Krueger. I absolutely love the Nightmare on Elm Street series and have all of them in my collection. The Rocky series is also among one of my favorites. I love biographical movies about someone's life, accomplishments and struggles. Fact or fiction, those type of films really draw me in. Comedies are really not my thing, although one does peak my interest every now and then.

Television:

As I mentioned before, I am a true crime fanatic so I watch the A&E Channel often. American Justice, Investigative Reports, Cold Case Files and The First 48 are my favorites. I also love newsmagazines such as Dateline NBC, Primetime Live, 48 Hours and 20/20. I have to admit, I am also into reality TV and American Idol is one of my faves along with Rock of Love 2, Celebrity Rehab, Celebrity Apprentice and Gene Simmons Family Jewels.

Books:

Anything regarding true crime. I have always said that if I was ever accused of a crime and the police searched my house, I would definately be convicted because of all of the true crime books I own!

Heroes:

My one true hero is my father. He is the one person who when he looks into my eyes, I can feel how much he loves me. I don't think I will ever find another man I can say that about! His unselfishness throughout my life is an inspiration and his unconditional love is really what keeps me going. He is a role model of what a real man should be, hardworking, loyal, honest and trustworthy. All of these mama's boys should stand up and take notice! Unlike most people, he doesn't run away when things get bad or when I screw up. He is there for me no matter what! God definately broke the mold when he created him and I am blessed to have been given such a wonderful dad!
